NABJ TO HILL: REVERSE CROSSOWNERSHIP MOVE
[SOURCE: tvnewsday]
The National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) is calling on Congress to reverse this week's decision by the FCC to allow coMMON ownership of both newspaper and broadcast media in the same city. NABJ said it strongly believes that media ownership should reflect the racial and ethnic make up of society and such a decision prohibits such diversity. "Is the fourth estate to be sold to the highest bidder?" asked NABJ President Barbara Ciara. "Congress cannot allow the FCC to limit diverse voices and further prevent ownership opportunities to minorities."
